So much pollen today... They have officially refused the Pollen Supplement and im cutting off the Organic Sugar Syrup after today. It's officially Spring in the PNW.
Hive Inspection was a success, Queen is still marked, laying great, no pests, and they're still only using the 7 Layens Frames for now.
I guess the Queen typically only uses around 6 Brood Frames for the layens hive so until we get a good nectar flow going i won't need more frames.
I checkerboarded a 1/4 length wax foundation frame in the middle of the brood to force them to build comb. They haven't touched the 2 frames i added several weeks ago when added to the end away from the entry.
